Clarinetist Patrick Messina and pianist Fabrizio Chiovetta invite us to a journey through Schumann's poetic universe, from romance to fantasy and to narrative. What better way to convey the inexpressible imagination of a composer than through the intimacy of chamber music and the mellow timbre of the clarinet in particular? The disc features works from Robert Schumann's productive years and includes a transcription made by the artists for the clarinet, the ideal autumnal, lyrical instrument. A duo with the viola player Pierre Lenert enhances the expressive palette of the disc. Also included are Clara Schumann's 'Drei Romanzen' Op. 22 whose inspiration happens to coincide with Robert's in this beautiful chamber music programme.
